In terms of editing, directing, acting, writing and casting, this film would be a 10+. But it's just too disturbing--and calling this film "disturbing" is like saying Gone with the Wind is a "nice story". This is a festival of twisted perversity in a Bancock back room. And the depth is unexpected. The subconscious crescendo of vile perspectives is unmatched in film. (This poor writer--sometimes you have to feel sorry for such brilliance when it reveals such scary stuff.) One thing for sure: this is Bill Pullman's performance of a lifetime. And I highly recommend you skip it, unless you can tolerate sweaty nightmares and obsessive checking of the locks on your doors. Pullman is no love-sick 30-something here. He's a cross between Hannibal Lechter and the blue-collar genre of Dennis Hopper, all wrapped up in your worst nightmare. Surveillance is an X-rated movie without the skin.
